Chapter 188 Chunhong Pavilion(1/2)

The crescent moon hanging alone winter night seems particularly cold, but the Qindu lights on the ground make the world particularly lively.

Ada, who was speeding forward on the houses and determining the direction, allowed Shi Wu to see the unique scenery of the world. Shi Wu couldn't help but sigh: "So beautiful!"

"In the future, Grandpa A will often take you to see you if you have the chance." After A Da finished speaking, he found an alley and found five Xu Mansions after taking Shi Wu around.

Ada was not sure, so he asked a middle-aged woman on the way and said, "Hello, I wonder if Mr. Xu Yan, the Minister of Justice, lives nearby?"

The middle-aged woman looked at A Da and the others and asked, "What's the matter with you when you look for Lord Xu?"

Shi Wu had already thought about it and said, "Auntie, Lord Xu owed money after having dinner in our restaurant and asked us to come here to get it now."

When the middle-aged woman heard the handsome young man calling her aunt, she smiled and said, "Why are young people nowadays so good at speaking?"

Shi Wu walked closer and said, "Auntie, we have never been to this place. Do you know where Mr. Xu lives?"

The middle-aged woman nodded and said, "I know, I live in the street behind. I am the woman in charge of the young master Chen from the Fourth-Class Hall. But young master, you may not be able to get the money."

Of course, Shi Wu was not going to get the silver. He said with anticipation: "Auntie, a great official of Lord Xu, will not save face for those dozens of taels of silver."

The middle-aged woman quietly said to Shi Wu: "Not to mention dozens of taels of silver, then Lord Xu will not give even a few taels of silver. If you don't believe it, just try your luck yourself. You walk along the road on your right, and when you reach a north-south intersection, you will walk north and you will see the Xu Mansion after almost three or four families."

Shi Wu heard this and said, "Thank you, aunt."

What else did the middle-aged woman want to say? Shi Wu had already followed Ada. The middle-aged woman put her hands in her sleeves and said, "Hey, Mr. Xu is really not a thing, she even depends on the money for the elderly and children."

Asa and Shiwu followed the route mentioned by the middle-aged woman and soon found Xu Yan's house.

Ada carried Shiwu on his back and crossed the high wall and entered the Xu Mansion. Perhaps because of the civil servants, the Xu Mansion was not as good as the Shi Mansion that Ada visited at night, and there were not as many maids and servants here as the Shi Mansion.

Ada told Shi Wu: "You can hide here for a while first, and I'll ask where Xu Yan is now."

Shi Wu leaned behind a rockery, afraid that he would be seen.

After Ada covered a black scarf, he flashed out and found a servant walking alone in the aisle. The wind swayed by, and he covered the servant's mouth and went to a corner.

The servant looked at A Da in horror and shook his head desperately in fear.

Ada calmed down the servant and said, "I came to find you Lord Xu. He owed the bill and needed to pay it back. Do you know where he is?"

The servant shook his head with a flashing look.

General Duan Jue directly inserted it on the wall next to the servant and said, "This is a good sword, which can be cut off your head without any blood. So for your head, I will leave after you finish speaking, how about you?"

The servant nodded fiercely this time. He didn't need to pay his life to be a loyal servant. Moreover, when he saw General Ah's long cloth bag stuck on the wall, the wall was tiny like a piece of tofu, which made him even less afraid to hide anything.

Ada slowly let go of his hands and said, "Tell me."

The servant whispered: "Hero, my master has recently fallen in love with Miss Wancui from Chunhong Pavilion. Our wife has quarreled with him a lot about this. It's only half way through the hour of the Hai Dynasty, and he may not come back until after the middle of the year."

Ada was very satisfied with the servant's answer and said to him: "If your master was beaten and knew that it was you who reported the news, your life would not be easy."

The servant looked at A Da and said, "Hero, you won't make things so difficult for me."

A Dadao: "Of course I won't make things difficult for you, but you won't make things difficult for yourself, either."

The servant said cleverly: "I just saw the scenery here and I didn't meet anything."

Ada laughed and said, "It seems that we will not be embarrassed tonight."

After saying that, Ada flew out, took Shi Wu and took him on the way to Chunhong Pavilion.

When Shi Wu saw that Ada came back, he said nothing and said, "Is Xu Yan not in the mansion?"

"I'm not here, but I asked where it was." Ada replied.

Shi Wu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since you know where you are, why are you so serious, Grandpa?"

A Dadao: "Because I don't know how to explain to Lintao in the future."

Shi Wu said strangely: "What does this have to do with my dad?"

"Because I want to take you to a place." Ada said again, "But after I go, I'm afraid your father will hit me."

Shi Wu became interested and said, "Where is it?"

"Britain." When Ada said these two words, Shi Wu decided there.

Shi Wu and Zhang asked with big eyes: "Is it the brothel that the uncles at the entrance of Xuanjia Village used to say?"

Ada didn't know what the people at the entrance of the village said, but I thought the brothels in the world should be the same, so he said, "Yes."

Shi Wu looked generous and said, "Then go, for Mr. Hu, I can be brave!"

Seeing that Shi Wu was not repulsed, Ada said, "Are you sure?"

Shi Wu nodded and said, "Yes."

"Okay, I remember it takes about two minutes to walk from here." Adao.

Seeing Ada's familiar appearance, Shi Wu exclaimed: "Grandpa A is Grandpa A, and he often dares to go to brothels."

Ada felt that Shi Wu had some misunderstandings about himself and the brothel, so he said, "Your Grandpa Xu is a regular visitor there. When I go to the brothel, I often send money. He likes to have a relationship first and then love. He said that if two people have no feelings, love is not very meaningful. By the way, do you really know where the brothel is?"

Shi Wu recalled, "I know, I heard from Haoran at the entrance of the village and the elders mentioned that brothels were a very dangerous place and children could not go there. Once they went there, they were not children. Only brave men could go in. Haoran and I were very eager to go there, but they looked strange when they said this."

When Ada heard this, he found that Shi Wu thought the brothel was like this. He was wrong and said, "Wait, just eat some pastries and fruits in the private room, don't run around."

Shi Wu thought that Grandpa, who was the one who was afraid that he would be in danger in the brothel, hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay!"

Ada was thinking that even if Shi Lintao finds out in the future, he won’t blame him.

One in front of the two, they arrived at Chunhong Pavilion. The madam at the door was a woman in her forties with a heavy makeup and a heavy fragrance on her body.

This was the first time that the old madam saw the old man bringing a child into the Chunhong Pavilion, but the visitor was a guest, so she didn't want to let them in. She stepped forward and said with sincerity: "The two guest officials looked a little bit like a little. I don't know if there are any girls we know. If so, I'll tell my wife and I'll call you out for you."

Shi Wu was a little embarrassed by the madam named Sanniang. He saw a large heating stove in the middle of Chunhong Pavilion, and it was not cold outside after entering. But why the women here were wearing the same clothes as in summer, and their clothes were not light, but also exposed, which made Shi Wu bow his head frequently.

Seeing that Shi Wu was still a young man, Sanniang giggled, "Young Master, don't be shy. The girls here are all made of water, they are very gentle."

Ada was afraid that Shi Wu would not be able to adapt to this environment, so he said directly: "Give us a private room and call Miss Wancui out to accompany us."

When Sanniang saw them calling out Wan Cui's name, she couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed: "Wan Cui is still greeting his enquire in the room, afraid that she will not be able to come to entertain the guest for the time being."

Ada handed over fifty taels of silver bills and said, "Then go to the private room first, and let her come when she is empty."

Seeing Ada making a fortune, Sanniang smiled and put away the banknotes, she asked a servant in the store to lead Ada and Shiwu to the upstairs room. They were staring at the guests who were drinking flower wine in the hall and hugging their female companions. The guests felt that the world had changed, and even the old man had the energy to bring his children to Chunhong Pavilion.

Shi Wu was surprised to find that the eyes of these people looked at him exactly the same as those uncles at the entrance of the village looked at him.

Shi Wu had to follow A Da closely and then he was more comfortable after entering the elegant room. The elegant room was divided into two halls with curtains, and there was a square wooden bed in the innermost part. Shi Wu felt that the decorations in the room were too colorful, and there was also a picture of a plump lady hanging on the wall, which was covered with only a little gauze, highlighting the beauty of the lady in the painting.

Shi Wu moved his face shyly and sat obediently on the stool.

Shi Wu couldn't help it and asked, "Grandpa, where is the brothel?"

Asa Dajian was already in the private room and said obscurely: "It's a charming place."

"Celebrity?" Shi Wu didn't understand even more this time, why did each of them say the same?

It was still the madam in Chunhong Pavilion who could watch people and do things. Not long after Ah Da and Shi Wu came in, she led a young woman and an eleven or two-year-old girl in.

Sanniang said, "Two guests, Wancui can come here sometimes. I'll let Yanhong and Liu Li play with you first." She naturally wouldn't neglect the distinguished guests who gave fifty taels of silver as soon as they came in.

Yanhong sat between Asa and Shiwu while Sanniang was talking. She didn't know who would like her more, so she just tried it one by one.

Yanhong said to Ada: "Call, come, I'll have a drink with you."

Ada refused, "I never drink."

Yanhong thought he didn't like her, so she turned to Shi Wu's hand and said, "Young master, sister, have a drink with you."

Shi Wu hurriedly said, "Sister, I can't drink wine."

Seeing that both of them rejected her, Yanhong said a little discouraged: "Then I'll play with the two guests."

Ada told Shi Wu: "You guys can play, I'll wait for Wancui."

Seeing that Ah Da pushed Yanhong over, he found an excuse and said, "Sister Liu Li, come and sit for a while."

Sanniang was afraid that they would not ask for it. Now she saw Shi Wu calling Liu Li on his own initiative, pinching Liu Li and letting her go over. Then Sanniang said to the two guests and played slowly and then went out.

I don’t know if it was too cold outside or why, but the little girl named Liu Li was a little stiff. She slowly sat at the table, and the seat she was sitting in was opposite to Ah Da and Shiwu.

Seeing that the atmosphere here was really awkward, Yanhong said, "I'll sing a small song for the two guests."

There is really nothing wrong now, so Ada nodded and said, "You sing."

After saying that, Yanhong cleared her throat, stood up and sang a song "Farewell to the Beauty of the Spring Breeze" in front of the curtain. Listening to the content, it was about a story about a talented man meeting and a beautiful woman from the world, and having to part because of the world. Yanhong also had a good voice, her voice was gentle and charming, and her eyes were still filled with tears when she sang it.

After singing the song, Shi Wu clapped and said, "Sister sang it so well."

Yanhong was secretly grateful, but fortunately she had a skill, otherwise wouldn't she be here like Liu Li?

Ada asked Shi Wu to give a ten tael silver note to Yanhong. Yanhong hurriedly thanked Shi Wu happily when she saw the silver note she handed over.

Shi Wu didn't feel anything about Yanhong's reaction, but when he saw that he handed over the silver note, the girl named Liu Li stared at the silver note.

Yanhong originally wanted to sing a few more songs, but Ada thought he didn't like it very much, so he said, "You can chat with me."

Seeing Ada taking the initiative to ask, Yanhong took their rewards just now, and smiled and poured Ada a cup of tea and said, "You can talk about anything you want."

A Dadao: "I was originally introduced to see Miss Wancui, but it's not worth it to hear Miss Yanhong's singing today."

Yanhong smiled and said, "Thank you for the praise of the guest. But Yanhong knows that Wancui is the top card in Chunhong Pavilion now, and most of the kindness customers are concerned about. Yanhong won't compete with her or anything else, and she can't compare to herself."
